Ilaria worth the money
Ilaria was spectacular! She showed us secrets and corners that we would have never seen. It is a two hour walking tour you don’t go into any museums . Great for a 9 year old . Ilaria is worth the money… but not entering anything is troublesome. She was able to get us tickets to see the David .

Roberta with Florence tours with kids is the Best guide !!!
We did 2 private tours with Roberta (walking tour+ accademia and uffizi) and Roberta made it fun and interesting for the 5 children. She knows a lot, born in Firenze and knows how to transmit her knowledge with dynamism. I highly recommend her ! Thanks a lot.

Beautiful Florence morning
Great way to see Florence. Roberta was so knowledgeable and friendly. Our 9 and 12 year olds adored her. She had a great way of engaging them while teaching them about the city.

Best of Florence Treasure Hunt Tour for Kids & Families: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Best of Florence Treasure Hunt Tour for Kids & Families cost?
+

How long does Best of Florence Treasure Hunt Tour for Kids & Families take?

+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended".

+
Around 16 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out.

What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Florence?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Florence?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
